Hi Axton,
The problem I have is that I'm no Solaris expert. The Solaris admin tells me that everything is normal with the zones. I have halted all other zones so that the server zone is alone. I was just wondering if there was any 'obvious' setting I can look for that might be reigning the zone back.

By slow I mean it takes ~ 60 hours! On a T5400 zone it takes ~ 24 hours. The DBA reckons the database is fine and the network connectivity seems ok too. The Solaris admins say all is OK with the zones. We're still not sure where the problem lies but the finger is pointing at Solaris at the moment. Are there any Solaris zone settings we might try to speed the upgrade performance? On a Windows/SQL Server system the same upgrade took ~ 6 hours.
